Back from holiday, which was Much Fun, although I now have a hideously large quantity of bruises. Snowboarding++, although it would be better if I was less of a Big Wuss & thus more prepared to go at speed. Next year... We also went on a very brief husky sledge trip (kitty_goth overturned the sledge when he was driving. I managed not to :-) ), which was *ace*. Huskies are lovely. And assorted other stuff. The torchlit descent one evening by the ski/snowboard school instructors was impressive, & v pretty especially as it was a clear night so the stars were all out as well. Getting utterly plastered at Popcorn was less of a good thing, especially the next morning :-) Secret House Cocktails: just say no, kids.

Sadly, despite nice holiday, I appear to still be utterly knackered, & not really up to form generally. I was hoping to go to BU this evening, but I think a QNI is instead called for - the 'socialising' concept is a slightly scary one atm. I'm starting to get slightly irritated with this: I feel like I've been slightly down/antisocial for a while now, & I'm not desperately keen on it. Maybe it's just a winter thing, and will lift soon.

I'm not entirely sure how I feel about Iron Council. I suspect it may indeed have flaws such as those to which I was blinded by the sheer wealth of invention on display. Though I did find the golemist - Judah, was that his name? - fascinating too.

he was the only fully fleshed out character, he was very good but you expect more from the suppporting munchkins, the Brucolac(sp) (vampire guy) in The scar is a perfect example, fully fleshed and interesting.

I thought the wispersmith was quite good but he decended into David Gemmel territory quite quickly.

I've never managed more than a sentence of Gemmel, so can't really comment...
